Energizer has developed the world’s first high-performance battery made with recycled batteries.
The Energizer EcoAdvanced is a AA battery that is four percent made from recycled batteries. It is also Energizer’s highest performing alkaline battery, allowing users to power their devices with less impact on the planet.
“Industry experts long believed it was impossible to create a battery made with recycled batteries while maintaining performance,” said Michelle Atkinson, chief marketing officer. “Our scientists welcome a challenge and have spent the past seven years creating just that – Energizer EcoAdvanced.”

The Energizer scientists have developed a way to refine and transform recycled battery material into a high-performance active ingredient.
By using recycled materials, the EcoAdvanced can be created with less impact on the planet as it requires less mining of virgin materials. As it is high performance, the EcoAdvanced also reduces the amount of batteries needed by consumers, resulting in less waste.
“By 2025, our vision for Energizer EcoAdvanced is to increase the amount of recycled battery material ten-fold to 40 percent,” said Ms. Atkinson.
Energizer stated that it is committed to bringing positive energy to the world by creating less waste and working toward a future where recycling is more broadly available. Energizer EcoAdvanced is said to be the company’s first step in creating value for recycled battery material, which until today has had little or no economic value. – EcoSeed Staff
